Former footballer of the Russian national team Roman Pavlyuchenko explained the defeat of the team to the Turks by the nationality of the judge Shimon Marchinyak. His words are quoted by Sport24.

“The Polish referees of the match are scoundrels, they killed the game. The Poles do not like Russians, it was immediately evident from the match. It's a shame when they go out to play football, and then a man in black uniform appears and starts his concert, ”Pavlyuchenko said. He considered the decision of the referee to deliver a penalty and remove defender Andrei Semenov as erroneous.
